Ethernet light stays on even when DV7 series laptop has stopped

Product: HP Pavilion DV7-7008tx

OS: Windows 7 64-bit

Question: When I turned off my laptop and leave the ethernet cable is connected, the ethernet light stays on. Remove the cable turns the light off, but put it back brings light on.

It's supposed to happen, or there at - it a way to stop this?

Thank you!

You have the Setup "Wake on Lan" in the BIOs? The function to the computer be awakened my network entries. You will need to start in the BIO to disable this feature. You may be able to disable this feature in Windows 7 as well. Here is a good article on how to enable/disable the wake on LAN feature: Wake - on - Lan (WOL) for Windows 7 Made Easy!

I hope this helps!

    My 'light' stays off even if it is properly connected. How can I solve this problem?

    Unfortunately, Apple does not provide repairs or even for the time Capsule repair parts.  If the Capsule is still under warranty, Apple will replace the device for you. Or, if you have AppleCare implemented one of your Mac and the Capsule is less than 3 years, Apple will also replace the device for you.

    There are 5 different versions of the time Capsule, so if your device is not covered by warranty or the AppleCare, whether or not repairs might be possible will depend on what model you have and how old the device that can be.

    You have the "tower" version of time Capsule-shaped, or the old version 'flat' or 'square '?

    If you have the old version of flat, square, look on the bottom of the unit for the model number. It starts with an "A" followed four digits.

  • P300-sensitive keys unresponsive and stay on even when laptop turned off

    Hello

    I have a P300 - 18M and the sensitive keys has suddenly stopped working, none of them are to be pressed (usually the light goes on).

    So I rebooted, and they were always the same. I can stop the laptop and the fires remained, even when I unplugged it.

    I then disconnected the battery for a minute, put back in, kicked upwards and now the buttons work correctly once again, however, I wonder, I would do anything to this topic, because my warranty runs a little more than a month, and I don't want to break right after...

    Also, anyone else has experienced something like this?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    It's really strange question, but if it works again, so I don't think that there is a serious problem.
    Of course, you can call Toshiba nearest service and ask for help, but if everything works well again I think there is no reason to panic.

    Service can test with own preinstalled OS and if everything works fine you will answer for laptop.
    Play a little with these buttons and features to test to be sure, everything is OK.

    Hello

    It is possible that your installation of Norton 360 is damaged and this can cause very long start-up times.

    Before you try the following, make sure that you have a way to reinstall Norton and the activation key if you are able to reinstall it.

    To completely uninstall Norton, download and run the Norton Removal Tool relevant to your particular product on the link below.

    https://www-secure.Symantec.com/Norton-support/JSP/help-solutions.jsp?LG=English&CT=United+States&docid=20080710133834EN&product=home&version=1&PVID=f-home

    When the tool has finished, restart the laptop.

    When windows has completely recharged, let it idle for 10 minutes then restart it again and see if the startup time has improved.

    If she has or not, reinstall Norton 360.

    Let me know.

  • Server 2008 R2 installation will not configure on DV7 series laptop

    I installed the Server 2008 R2 on a laptop DV7-7012nr. I upgraded the memory up to 16 GB. I deleted all the partitions, and then divide the hard drive into 2 partitions. Partition 1 is 7 442 Go Windows, Partition 2 is 256 GB server.

    When I install, windows server 2008, in dual boot, it will not complete the configuration for the material. This leaves me the choice either reinstall Windows server 2008 and to come back to the same error or return to windows 7.

    After spending 5 days with installing Server 2008 R2 64-bit on this laptop, I contacted the HP Support. Technical support HP and after 4 hours and 7 different technicians, I was informed that they can not help me with the installation of Server 2008 on this laptop.

  • Wireless switch stays blue even when when off

    I noticed recently that I'm disconnects and I don't know why. When I ask for a diagnosis, it is said the Betacam wireless is disabled when in fact it is not since the blue light means that it is. When I try to put out of service, the light does not change to orange to indicate that it is now disabled. Instead, I have to restart my computer to get the light to the off position. Once I do and tilt back to blue, it captures the wireless signal.

    I don't know what to do. Help, please.

    Hello
     
    Check the settings of power management applied to the wireless network card driver. To do this, follow these steps.
    1. click on start, type devmgmt.msc and press to enter.
    2. from the list of objects, expand network adapters.
    3. double-click on the sub element that refers to the wireless adapter.
    4. click on the power management tab, and uncheck all the options.
    5. apply the settings, and then restart the computer so that the changes take effect.

  • IDT Audio Codec time Sound speakers but not with headphones on ENVY DV7 series laptop

    I bought my laptop not more than two months ago. Its perfectly played through my helmet literally the day before yesterday.

    Only two changes have occurred since then, first of all I accidentally plugged my headphones into the external microphone jack, then I updated the 'Music' for Windows 8 PC application.

    After my sound stopped working. I restored my PC to a restore point dated before its no longer works in my helmet, however resonates once again that in my speakers (when my headphones are disconnected). When I plug my headphones, sound no longer plays in my speakers but no sound from my headphones either.

    How can I get audio to play through my headphones?

    Product name and number: Envy of HP dv7 Notebook PC C2h74UAR #ABA

    Operating system: 64-bit Windows 8

    Error message: None

    Changes: 1) update "music" app for Windows 8

    (2) accidentally plugged in headphones and external microphone jack

    Hello

    Try the following.

    First of all, download and reinstall the Chipset driver at the following link.

    Chipset Driver - Windows 8

    When reinstalling, restart the laptop.

    When windows has reloaded, download IDT Audio Installer on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

    IDT Audio Installer - Windows 8.

    One time finished, open windows control panel, open Device Manager and open sound, video and game controllers.  Right click on the IDT device and select uninstall - also, you should get a command prompt to delete the current driver, check the box allow this and then proceed to uninstall.

    When you're done, shut down the laptop, unplug the AC adapter and then remove the battery.  Press and hold the Power button for 30 seconds.  Reinsert the battery and plug in the AC adapter.

    Robinet tap away at the key esc that you start the computer to launch the Start Menu, and then select f10 to open the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the default values (sometimes it's f9, but the menu below indicates the correct key), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press ENTER.  Press f10 to save the setting and still use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press on enter.

    Allow Windows to fully - charge it will automatically load an audio driver, but let just this complete.  Then open your download folder, right-click on the IDT Installer and select "Run as Administrator" to launch the installation.  Once this done, do a right-click the speaker icon in the taskbar and select playback devices.  'Speakers and headphones' left click once to highlight, and then click the Set Default button - check if you now audio with headphones.

    So Ive had this laptop (chart below) for about a year and a half now, and last week he suddenly started freezing only while it loads. It happens regardless of the temperature, my graphic choice (radeon or intel) and any other factor. When this happens, I can still move my mouse to the screen, but everything else is frozen (bar tasks will not fall down as normal, background turn, monitor cpu is not update. im not very experienced in solving a problem like this, but I don't know my way around my PC so I can easily get the necessary additional info.)

    The only problem I see is AVG.

    AVG is that a virus scanner which often gives trouble.

    Why? It is not the best antivirus and gives wrong with HijackThis.

    HijackThis is a tool of advanced securety used by malware specialists. And AVG is not the complete package.

    Yust a assume that you use the Windows Firewall? If Yes this isn't good eunogh for threats.

    Another assumption:

    Please uninstall all versions of java and download this new version.

    I recommend Avast 7 free + free Online Armor + Secunia PSI 3.0 and Java 8

    If you plan to install Avast it please let me know. You will need to disable something in Avast, otherwise there will be trouble with Online armor free.

  • How can I check the speed broadband on my HP Pavilion DV7 series laptop?

    I am a Novice. My laptop is a HP Pavilion dv7 with Windows 7 64 bit, I received for Christmas 2011. His speed was great until I received a phone call from my DSL provider (a week ago) proposing to improve my speed from 3Mbps to 6 Mbps for an additional monthly cost of $5. I refused because he ran very fast and I was completely satisfied. Since then, it has been very slow and does not load new pages quickly. If I click several times, I get a circle with a line through it, that had never happened before the phone call. Another friend in the region had the same problem after having received the same offer.  Thank you!
